Hi @Henry Ng Tsz Kiu Thanks for reviewing š Well, I guess the bare chords in the A section are indeed intentional, they give a strong, rigorous - bare - tone to this first part, aimed at evolving towards a more flourished, lyrical part when switching to D Major for the main theme. You're right about the harmonisation errors in b.16 and b26, I missed that. Your last remark about the transition towards the end in D Major makes sense ; I had wondered a little bit about it must admit, but finally let it like it is. Best regards, Marc -

lol I have never replied here!! Pabio you are just too nice, I already find some minor little flaws in the music š! But thank you so much for loving it so much!! I am sure I hope to strive for greatness in this music, though I donāt now whether it does achieve greatness or not. I just have so many things I wanna speak that hasnāt be spoken and they are all spoken here in this music. I thought of the tragedy of my friend, Ukraine, Gaza people (not the evil state) and humanity in general, the philosophical teachings my philosophy Professor and his teachers, Confucius and Kant taught, and just wanna express them out. This is the first time I truly donāt care whether the Sextet is well received or not, because I have already spoken out what I wanna speak and I know I have paid my 500% effort in composing this. I know I have no regrets writing this because I pour all my hearts and souls in it, and even if the product is not good enough, I still have no regrets because I probably wonāt be able to do better. I am sure you will write your own work that you are satisfied very much with Pabio! I did keep dreaming that I would finish the Sextet one day even though itās very, very, very difficult. I always think that you have to have new thoughts in order to have new sound and timbre, not the vice verse as the contemporary music composer claims. Thank you! I still enjoy very much what you commented on the 2nd movement of the Sextet!! Henry -

Hi @kaiyunmusic! Really like this vibraphone like electric piano piece. I agree with Peter, the piece is more in 6/8 than in 3/4 since the dotted crotchet is the basic unit here, rather than the crotchet. Nonetheless, I enjoy very much the serene mood here. Thx for sharing! Henry -

Hello @Vladisove! Welcome to the forum! I didnāt read your post at first, but I recognise the opening of the 1st piece as really Sibelius like with that particular Scandinavian colour, like use of harp and pizzicato and winds in high register. The thick brass in 1:50 has reminiscence of Wagner before returning to Sibelius Woodwind. Really love your woodwind usage here, particularly the English Horn. The D minor 2nd piece is really ice-cold just like Sibeliusās work. That English Horn/Oboe entry is amazing for portraying the bitter and cold mood. I love the vocal too, even tho I donāt know the lyrics. The ponticello tremolo opening is captivating. I love these mood here, though I think for a 10 minute piece it can introduce more memorable Melodies to sustain the interest throughout the piece. However I love the ending very much especially it ends in my favourite C sharp minor and F sharp minor. I love these pieces and they are amazing especially when you donāt receive formal music education. Maybe for me I would love to have more contrasting mood in this suite, since they are more or less in slower tempo and minor key, portraying the cold atmosphere as in Sibeliusās work. Thanks for joining and sharing your work! Remember to hit the like button under my comment so that we know you like my comment haha! Henry -

Thank you for your instant response! As I am new on YC - it is like attending a house music concert for the first time where all other guests are still unknown - it is very pleasant to be welcomed warmly by the host (according to my reading of a number of the latest posts I have noticed that you are very active in replying to new submissions and as you are one of the āModeratorsā, I consider that you are one of the āhostsā among the YT community). I will take a more thorough look at your profound comments concerning the composition of my fugue as soon as possible. The applause at the end - I know it's a bit embarrassing, but I added it for technical reasons, because I often had the problem that videos on iOS devices were cut off when there was only silence at the end, and one wants to hear of cause the final chord after all. You have recommended to follow @Fugax Contrapunctus. Interestingly, Iām already a (still silent) follower of him on YouTube and I found the YC website only due to he has linked it in its YouTube profile. Iāll watch his fugues (an your own, linked one) in the next time a bit more thoroughly to be able to give a reply, too. Greetings from Wieland
